Spiderman 2 versus the MCU

Yep. Definitely better than some of them.

Spiderman 2 is NOT a great Comic Book Movie. Here are some of my problems with the movie:


Peter being a pizza delivery boy AND at the Bugle at the same time (which never happened in the comics).

Doc Ock didn't LOOK at all like the Comic Book Version of the character (for instance his hair in the comics was styled like Elton John's, and Doc Ock was NEVER a sympathetic villain nor did he have a wife)

It is in this movie where Raimi's Sympathetic Villain fetish that got even worse in Spiderman 3, begins. I mean what is the point of Doc Ock having a wife that he NEVER had in the comics and worse still after she died wasn't even really a major influence on his character becoming a villain (Rachel's death in the Dark Knight and the influence on Harvey's character towards becoming Two Face in the Dark Knight is a far better example of this ) Doc Ock was more motivated by his EGO, his ARROGANCE and his REFUSAL to believe that he could have been wrong about his experiment, than her death.

Peter's powers mysterious disappearing/reappearing whenever the plot needed it.

MJ was a total slut in this running from her wedding to JJJ's son to Peter.

Aunt May wasn't a real character in this. She was there just to get capture by Doc Ock at the Bank scene and to motivate Peter whenever he felt like giving up on being Spiderman.

Doc Ock would have NEVER been given permission by New York City to conduct such a Dangerous experiment in the middle of Manhattan, and can someone tell me how that "Sun"/fusion ball didn't blind everyone that was close to it or vaporize everyone/everything that close to it, or even when it was dropped into the Water at the end when it was vaporizing metal???

The stupid Raindrops song scene. And the Elevator scene felt awkward, not funny. The Landlord character was another annoyance as was the daughter. And the Psychiatrist visit scene was stupid as well.

Harry's scene with his dead father was pretty awful as well ("AVENGE ME!!!" "NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!") i mean between this and Doc Ock's "NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!", why do people criticize Darth Vader's "NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!" in Revenge of the Sith, but are silent about both Doc Ock's and Harry's hysterical "NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!" Screams in this?

The Bank Fight was ridiculous and also shows another problem i have with this Doc Ock: How is Spiderman able to throw giant bags of gold coins/money at Doc Ock's head and he ISN'T knocked out???



And we are supposedly to believe that Aunt May could tolerable all of that grabbing being dropped and hanging onto that building SEVERAL TIMES without any serious health problems especially at her age???



Or in the Train Fight(and slightly before it) where Spiderman Punches  and kicks Doc Ock in the FACE SEVERAL TIMES, and Doc Ock ISN'T seeing the stars or knocked out. Doc Ock may have mechanical limbs, but he is still a NORMAL HUMAN so Spiderman's Punches SHOULD HAVE KNOCKED HIM OUT OR SEVERELY DAMAGED HIM which it didn't. Also why didn't Spiderman and Doc Ock falling on the Train NOT create a major dent on the Train when they both fell from the Building??? Or how did Doc Ock Survive the fall undamaged since he doesn't have Spiderman's super human strength???


Also at 1:37 how did Doc Ock know when to duck when he was facing Spiderman the entire sequence???

The Crap about the people on the train NOT telling anyone about Peter identity when he was unmasked is unbelievable, especially in light of a scene earlier where a bum tried to haggle money out of JJJ for Spiderman's costume.


The Cafe scene with Peter and MJ is another major problem point in this movie for me: First of all Where did Doc Ock launch that car from since after it was launched we see Doc Ock descending to the Cafe from the surrounding buildings rooftops??? Second since at this point of the movie Doc Ock DIDN'T know that Peter was Spiderman, and was told by Harry before that he should question Peter about Spiderman, how did Doc Ock expect to question Peter about Spiderman since launching that car at Peter would have definitely KILLED HIM

Also at 2:41 how did Doc Ock survive getting electrocuted in the fight fight???



Some other problems are illustrated in this video:


Spiderman 2 is full of bullsh!t, and NOT that great of a Comic Book Movie.

Spider-Man 2 is 1 of the top 5 greatest superhero movies of all time and is definitely much better than every MCU movie.

lol

HOW DARE YOU RATIONALLY AND CALMLY JUST ENJOY BOTH THINGS!!!1

That's so crazy, you might just be onto something... just appreciate the positives of all this stupid nerd shit we never thought we'd get as kids and come together to savor how cool and fun it is as opposed to quibbling in pissy, pithy fashion over obscure details that are ultimately irrelevant?

...

... Nah! The MCU is -- oh, wait: THE MCU IS TERRIBLE AND SHOULD BE REBOOTED!!!!1112
